We really enjoyed our stay at the Hilton Royal Palm. The staff was really nice and checkin and checkout was way easy and quick. The area was super convenient as well. It's nice that the pool is heated and they have towels for you down at the beach. Snorkeling was actually really good here too by the rocks. I would definitely recommend staying here. Only downside was the Nowhere Special Bar across the street plays music really loud sometimes past midnight. Hilton can't control that though.

Family Vacation
The views were fantastic, room was nice and clean. We had 6 in the two bedroom and it didnt feel cramped. The beach area is great. Pool is a little small but they have a swim up bar. The bar across the street is REALLY loud till late in the night but a white noise app fixed that if you are on the side of the hotel that faces it. Decent location with several restaurants within walking distance. Pretty much everything is 7 to 10 bucks per person for a cab anywhere else. Store onsite had good variety of stuff and not stupid expensive. Overall minus the bar across the street it was fantastic.

We enjoyed the resort. It is in a great location, easy to visit the Dutch and French side. It is clean and there are plenty of dining options close by. I would rent a car to visit beaches around the island. We did and there are many beaches within 20 minutes to an hour. The resort beach is small but nice. The staff is great and property is clean and well-kept.

Reasonable choice with caveats
Ten mins from airport, hotel is right on the water, one expanse of beach and a secluded cove. You can snorkel and will see plenty of fish, and sea life among the rocks that shelter the beach and the water is warm and fairly clear, & it wasn’t crowded. Free sun loungers and beach towels from a hut. The pool area was fine, a nice swim up bar but it felt crowded at times. The pool rules were scattershot, no noodles or floaters but they were available…enforcement depended on who was standing around. I felt the pool water could use a better filter system as it was cloudy at times. The Cabana bar / restaurant was mostly good to great and has a decent happy hour. Our first meal was excellent, subsequent ones just good. One quibble was the service charge or was it a gratuity? That said the staff were cheerful and keen to help, and organized activities each day were fun. Our 5th Flr unit was clean, with a lovely bay view, two modern showers, good kitchen - pretty comfy, and it was (2 bed) big enough for our family (5) BUT the BAR NOISE after 9:30pm was a problem - the beach side bedroom was fine but the street side is brutal. I did request away from the road but we were placed opposite Nowhere Special. We put on white noise and fans so our teen kids could sleep, but that wouldn’t work for two adult couples and you’re forced to hang out on balcony to talk. Resort is no pets but we did see several dogs - Hilton should enforce that. We did enjoy our stay but with some rough edges.
